food IS a theme park
Quite a few attractions will be CLOSING in Disney World in 2025.
Magic Kingdom
Some attractions will be closing permanently to make way for other offerings, like Tom Sawyer Island, Liberty Square Riverboat, and TriceraTop Spin. But outside of the permanent closures, there will also be a few attractions that close for refurbishment…and now one has been added to the list!
The time has officially come in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Yesterday, we said goodbye to an adorable attraction that was fit for all ages. Over on Sunset Boulevard, tucked away close to where Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster is located but even FURTHER behind it sat Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy, but as of today, it’s no more.
Rides come and rides go at the Disney parks around the world.

It makes sense — the parks are constantly changing and older rides are either retired or reinvented. To that point, Space Mountain at Tokyo Disney Resort is closing tomorrow! Let’s go over the details!
This is not a drill! Space Mountain at Tokyo Disney Resort is closing at the end of July! Disney just released ALL the details about a special celebration that’s taking place to say goodbye to Space Mountain as we know it in this park, and we are excited!

The parks are always in a constant state of change. New rides are built, and older rides are reinvented to create new experiences for guests. Even though it is hard to see certain rides go, we are also thrilled to see what the future holds!
Don’t mind us, we are just researching plane tickets to see if we can make it there for this celebration!
It’s been a pretty big year for Disney World closures.

We said goodbye to Splash Mountain, the Galactic Starcruiser Hotel, Harmonious, Tokyo Dining, and more, but there were some attractions and restaurants we still weren’t sure about. Disney hadn’t made any sort of announcements about these spots for quite some time — but now we have an official answer about one!
When it comes to planning your Disney World trip, it’s important to keep up with all the latest changes!
Tree of Life
From construction updates to new menu items or ride refurbishments, the parks and resorts are changing all the time. If you’re heading to Disney World in early 2023, there might be a few attractions unavailable — and we just found out about another one.
We’ve seen a LOT of upcoming ride and attraction closures for Disneyland Resort recently.
Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland
We’ve got refurbishments going on over at Tarzan’s Treehouse, Indiana Jones Adventure, Radiator Springs Racers, and more at various times in the early part of 2023. But now, you can add another attraction to that list!
If you’re heading to EPCOT today, we’ve got some attraction news that could affect your plans!
Spaceship Earth
Rides can close down unexpectedly in Disney World for a wide variety of reasons, and unfortunately, guests can’t always prepare ahead of time for these closures. One popular attraction at EPCOT is closing early today and we’re sharing all the information you need to know!
One of the most popular attractions in Magic Kingdom experienced some technical difficulties this morning.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Queue
We’ve been keeping a close eye on the construction around Magic Kingdom lately, including work on the new TRON Lightcycle Run coaster, construction walls outside “it’s a small world”, and updates to the Magic Kingdom entrance sign. But today, there was an unexpected interruption on one of the park’s attractions.
Splash Mountain has been getting a lot of attention lately!
Splash Mountain
The Walt Disney World attraction will soon be transformed into a Princess and the Frog ride. Since the announcement, fans have been flocking to the Briar Patch gift shop to pick up Splash Mountain merchandise. We don’t know when the ride will be shut down for refurbishment or how long it will take for the ride to reopen once construction begins. We noticed something interesting while perusing the My Disney Experience app today!
